www.oppracing.com

I bought some, and converting it for street use.... good stuff, seen it first hand....

they are located out in Coquitlam.....

Is it a lot of work and cost to convert it to street use?

 

[PH-Q2]

contact me www.overthetop.ca $750 full set

it's 755 for a full set for pretty much all bike models, then factor in another 150 or so bucks to convert it for street use. Then your gonna want to paint them probably, and perhaps if you want, sticker them up.... so add a bit more money on top of that. But it's hella a lot cheaper than trying to buy a full set of stock body work.

I am getting a full set of race fairings for the track for 500 bucks under the table

If you're not very handy at this sort of thing or don't have the tools or place to do the work it would probably be quite pricey.

But to shoot a single color of paint onto the plastic wouldn't be too expensive. Probably $300 to $400 for a basic job.

Bear in mind too that racing body work does not come with the little mounting holes pre-drilled or any needed bushings or spacers. You have to figure all that out for yourself.

yup, bmatthews is right, you're gonna have to drill all the mounting holes in. As well as anything extra for like mirrors and such.... so it's not just a slap on the bike kinda deal when you get your stuff.... some work is actually involved for once

 

[eg_hybrid]

Doesn't OPP bodywork come with reinforced carbon kevlar mounting points? If so, wouldn't it be pre-drilled than?

... or do you have to drill within the reinforced mounting points?

BTW, what thickness did you buy?

Mines coming in medium weight. If it has anything for reinforcing I be double happy.

They might put extra patches on there but it's still up to you to drill and supply any standoff spacers. Looking at the pics the stuff doesn't have any of those little dimple recesses.

medium. I think he says he doesn't really bring in the heavy stuff anymore....

but, yeah, I believe there are dimples (well it might depend on which bodywork you get, the f4i one I saw had dimples where you needed to drill at), you just have to drill in them, I checked out the stuff on wednsday when I went down to the shop. The stuff is nice, just requries a little bit of work to get it ready....

Did they have your bodywork in stock? If not, how long did you wait for it to come in?

he didn't have any new gsxr bodywork in.... he is expecting his next shipment around mid-april..... he had lots of other bike bodywork in though.

If you guy's want to pay top dollar for bodywork,thats fine by me,but if you want the same bodywork that OPP is selling now at an extra cost to yourself,give him a shout.

If you want the same bodywork at a discount price.
www.overthetop.ca is where you can order it from .$750.00 tax in.

I saw this a while back but they don't list anything for the older Honda's so I just gave it a nod and passed through. Do you know if he can get other stuff too? Or is that your site? I seem to recognize that bike in the pics

the main reason I went with opp was they will do the big part of the conversion for street use for me which was doing the headlight part.... costed me a bit more, but oh well....

if it was track use only, then going with overtop is a no-brainer if you want to save a bit of $$ money.

I'm in the same situation as CDN_gixxer.
Though i'm ok for the front end. My problem is that i would like to use the LED taillights for the tail section. I know OPP makes a nice (anti-drag kit) cover that fits the LED tailights.

PH-Q2, does you guys make the anti-drag kit??

Ian and I just to a marker outlined the cut outs froms the stock bodywork onto our race glass,

then we dremeled it to fit, it was really easy but i am not sure if yours will be any more difficult
